Pneumatosis Cystoides Intestinalis Mimicking Perforation in a Patient With Gastric Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma: A Case Report [PDF]
ABSTRACT Pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis (PCI) poses a diagnostic challenge by radiographically mimicking surgical emergencies like perforation. This case highlights that while PCI itself may be benign, the decision for exploration must weigh the risk of missing a life‐threatening condition or a coincident malignancy.

Level of Vascular Ligation for Sigmoid Colon Cancer: Does It Matter? The Pina Low‐T Study
ABSTRACT Background and Methods In sigmoid colon cancer surgery, the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) can be ligated at its origin (high ligation, HLG) or distal to the left colic artery bifurcation (low ligation, LLG). While high ligation facilitates lymph node harvest and mobilization, it may compromise colonic perfusion and increase nerve injury ...

The junction between the midgut and hindgut co‐localizes with the rectosigmoid junction
At 5 weeks of development, the midgut has formed its primary loop (left). It is well established that the midgut is bounded cranially by the caudal end of the ventral mesentery and the presence of the common bile duct, but its caudal boundary remains to be established.

ABSTRACT Ensuring an adequate surgical proximal margin (SPM) is crucial in radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. However, the lack of tactile feedback in laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG) and robotic distal gastrectomy (RDG) poses challenges in precisely determining tumor boundaries, particularly in advanced gastric cancer, where tumor ...
